ʻO ka pōpoki Somali, a i ʻole Somali (English Somali cat) kahi lūlū o nā pōpoki home lōʻihi lauoho i iho mai ka Abyssinian. ʻO lākou nā pōpoki olakino, ikaika a akamai hoʻi i kūpono i nā poʻe me kahi nohona hana.
Mōʻaukala o ka lāhui
Hele pū ka mōʻaukala o ka pōpoki Somali me ka mōʻaukala o ka Abyssinian, ʻoiai no lākou mai lākou. ʻOiai ʻaʻole i loaʻa iā Somalia ka ʻike a hiki i ka 1960, ua ʻike ʻia kona mau kūpuna, nā pōpoki Abyssinian, no nā haneli he haneli, inā ʻaʻole nā makahiki he mau kaukani.
No ka manawa mua, ʻikea ʻo Somalis ma United States, ke hōʻike ʻia nā keiki keiki me ka lauoho lōʻihi i waena o nā keiki i hānau ʻia e nā pōpoki Abyssinian. ʻO nā Breeders, ma kahi o ka hauʻoli i kēia mau bonus liʻiliʻi, fluffy, hoʻolei mālie iā lākou, ʻoiai e hoʻāʻo nei e hoʻomohala i ka ʻāpana no ke oho lōʻihi.
Eia nō naʻe, recessive kēia ʻaoʻao, a no ka mea e hōʻike iā ia iho, pono ia i ke koko o nā mākua ʻelua. A, no laila, hiki ke hoʻoili ʻia i mau makahiki me ka hōʻike ʻole iā ia iho i nā keiki. ʻOiai ʻo ka hapa nui o nā pahu i hōʻailona ʻole i kēlā mau keiki i kekahi ʻano, paʻakikī e ʻōlelo i ka wā i puka mua mai ai nā pōpoki Somalia. Akā ʻoiaʻiʻo ma kahi o 1950.
Aia he mau manaʻo nui ʻelua e pili ana i kahi i hele mai ai ka ʻiʻo pōpoki loloa. Manaʻo kekahi ua hoʻohana ʻia nā ʻano lauoho lauoho lōʻihi ma Pelekane i ka wā, ma hope o nā kaua honua ʻelua, pono e hoʻihoʻi i ka lehulehu o nā pōpoki Abyssinian. ʻO ka hapa nui o lākou i waena o ko lākou kūpuna nā pōpoki o ke koko huna, hiki iā lākou ke lauoho lōʻihi. ʻOi aku ma hope o ke Kaua Honua ʻElua, aia wale nō ma kahi o ʻumikūmālua mau holoholona i koe mai ka heluna lehulehu o ka laha, a ua hoʻokau ʻia nā kahu hānai e hele i nā hana keʻa, no laila ʻaʻole lākou i nalo iki.
Eia nō naʻe, ke manaʻoʻiʻo nei kekahi he pōpoki lauoho lōʻihi ka hopena o ka hoʻololi i loko o ka lānai ponoʻī. ʻO ka manaʻo i kupu mai nā pōpoki Somali iā lākou iho, me ke kōkua ʻole o ke keʻa kea, makemake nui ʻia e nā hobbyist.
Ma hope o nā mea āpau, ke ʻano o kēia he lāhui kūlohelohe ka Somali, ʻaʻole hybrid. A he kuleana ko ka manaʻo e kū.
Akā, no ka mea hea mai ka moʻokūʻauhau, ua ʻike lōʻihi ʻia nā pōpoki Abyssinian lauoho lōʻihi ma ke ʻano he keiki makemake ʻole ʻia, a hiki i ka makahiki 1970. ʻO Evelyn Mague, ka mea nona ka cathes Abyssinian, ʻo ia ka mea mua nāna i hoʻomākaukau i ke ala no ka ʻike no nā pōpoki Somalia.
ʻO ia, a me kāna hoaloha ʻo Charlotte Lohmeier, i hōʻuluʻulu i kā lāua mau pōpoki, akā i loaʻa kahi keiki pua puʻupuʻu i ka ʻōpala, i ka wā e hiki mai ana, ua lōʻihi paha ka lōʻihi. Ma ke ʻano he poʻe pā o nā pōpoki Abyssinian, ua mālama lākou i kahi "male" me ka haipule ʻole. A ʻo ia, ua liʻiliʻi loa (ma kahi o 5 mau pule), hāʻawi ʻia.
Akā ʻaʻole hiki ke hoʻopunipuni ʻia ka hopena, a ʻo ka pōpoki (ʻo George kona inoa), hāʻule hou i ka lima o Magu, mahalo i kāna hana i ka hui e kōkua i nā pōpoki home ʻole a haʻalele ʻia, a ʻo ia ka pelekikena. Ua pūʻiwa ʻo ia i ka nani o kēia pōpoki, akā ʻoi aku ka pūʻiwa o kona ʻike ʻana no ka ʻōpala ia a lāua me kāna hoa aloha i hānai ai.
I loko o kēia manawa, ua noho ʻo George me ʻohana ʻelima (no hoʻokahi makahiki) a ʻaʻole ia e mālama ʻia a hānai ʻia paha. Ua hewa ʻo ia ua haʻalele ʻia ʻo ia i ka wā e noho hōʻoluʻolu ana kona mau kaikaina a me nā kaikuahine (Abyssinians piha) me ko lākou mau ʻohana.
A ua hoʻoholo ʻo ia e mahalo ka honua iā George e like me kāna kūpono. Ua pono ʻo ia e hana nui e lanakila i ke kūʻē a me ka huhū a nā luna kānāwai, nā Abyssinian cattery nona a me nā hui amateur e hoʻolei iā ia.
ʻO kahi laʻana, ua kūʻē ʻē nā mea hoʻohua i kāna inoa ka lāhui hou ʻo Abyssinian Longhair, a ua manaʻo ʻo ia e loaʻa kahi inoa hou nona. Ua koho ʻo ia iā Somalia, ma ka inoa o ka ʻāina kokoke loa iā Abyssinia (ʻo ʻAtiopa i kēia manawa).
No ke aha, ʻaʻole makemake nā mea hānai o nā pōpoki Abyssinian e ʻike i nā pōpoki Somalia i nā hōʻike, akā naʻe, e like me nā wahi ʻē aʻe. Ua ʻōlelo ʻia kekahi o lākou e ʻike wale ʻia ka lāhui hou ma o kona kupapaʻu. ʻOiaʻiʻo, ua ʻike ʻia nā pōpoki Somalia ma hope o kona make ʻana.
He kaua maoli nā makahiki mua, a ʻo Magu, e like me kekahi mau mea hānai ʻē aʻe, ua koa i ka lanakila.
Ua kāhea aku ʻo Magew i kahi kennel o Kanada i lilo i mea kōkua nona, a laila ua hui pū kekahi poʻe hou aku iā ia.
I ka makahiki 1972 ua hana ʻo ia i ka Somali Cat Club o ʻAmelika, kahi e hoʻākoakoa ai i ka poʻe hoihoi i kahi lāhui hou. A i ka makahiki 1979, ua loaʻa iā Somalia ke kūlana poʻokela i ka CFA. Ma o 1980, ua ʻike ʻia e nā hui nui āpau i United States o kēlā manawa.
I ka makahiki 1981, ua hōʻea ka pōpoki Somali mua ma UK, a he 10 mau makahiki ma hope, i ka makahiki 1991, ua loaʻa iā ia ke kūlana poʻokela i ka GCCF. A ʻoiai ʻo ka helu o kēia mau pōpoki ʻoi aku ka emi o ka nui o nā pōpoki Abyssinian, ua lanakila ka Somali i kona wahi ma ke apo hōʻike a ma ka puʻuwai o nā pā.
Wehewehe
Inā makemake ʻoe i kahi pōpoki me nā ʻano maikaʻi āpau o ka lāhui Abyssinian, akā me kahi kapa hoʻoluʻu a hapa lōʻihi hoʻi, mai nānā i kekahi mea ʻē aʻe ma mua o ka Somali. ʻAʻole ʻo Somalia he Abyssinian lauoho lōʻihi, ua hana nā makahiki o ka hānau ʻana i nā ʻokoʻa he nui.
Nui a me waena i ka nui, ʻoi aku ka nui ma mua o ka Abyssinian, ʻo ke kino he lōʻihi waena, lokomaikaʻi, puni ka umauma, e like me ka hope, a me he mea lā e lele ka pōpoki.
A hāʻawi nā mea āpau i ka manaʻo o ka wikiwiki a me ka dexterity. ʻOi aku ka mānoanoa o ka huelo ma ke kumu a heʻuʻuku i ka hopena, like i ka lōʻihi me ke kino, fluffy loa.
Kaupaona nā pōpoki Somali mai 4.5 a 5.5 kg, a me nā pōpoki mai 3 a 4.5 kg.
ʻO ke poʻo i ke ʻano o kahi wedge i hoʻololi ʻia, me ka ʻole o nā kihi ʻoi. Nui nā pepeiao, maʻalahi, kiko liʻiliʻi, ākea. E hoʻonoho i kahi laina i hope o ka iwi poʻo. Ulu ka huluhulu mānoanoa i loko, makemake ʻia ka hulu hipa i ke ʻano o nā kāʻei.
ʻO nā maka he ʻano ʻalemona, nunui, ʻōlinolino, ʻōmaʻomaʻo maʻamau a gula paha i ke kala. ʻO ka momona a hohonu o kā lākou kala, ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi, ʻoiai i kekahi mau hihia ʻae ʻia nā maka keleawe a me nā maka. Ma luna o kēlā me kēia maka aia kahi laina pōkole, pouli kū i luna, mai ka eyelid lalo i ka pepeiao he "hahau" ʻeleʻele.
Palupalu loa ka pale i ka hoʻopā, me kahi undercoat; ʻo ka mānoanoa ʻo ia, ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi. ʻOi aku ka pōkole o ka poʻohiwi, akā pono ka lōʻihi e lawa ai i ʻehā a ʻeono mau kaha kiko.
Makemake ʻia e hoʻomohala i kahi kola a me ka pants ma nā wāwae. Leʻaleʻa ka huelo, e like me ka ʻalopeke. Hoʻonui mālie a kala ka kala o nā pōpoki Somalia ma kahi o 18 mau makahiki o ko lākou mau makahiki.
Pono ke kapaʻahuʻula e kahi kik ticking, i ka hapanui o nā hui e ʻae ʻia nā kala: hihiu (ʻulaʻula), sorrel (sorrel), polū (polū) a me fawn (fawn). Akā, i nā mea ʻē aʻe, e like me TICA, a me nā kala kālā: kālā, ʻulaʻula kālā, ʻulaʻula kālā, kālā ʻulaʻula, a me nā kālā kālā.
ʻAe pū ʻo AACE i ke kālā kinamona a me ke kālā kokoleka. ʻO ka mea ʻano ʻokoʻa o nā kala ʻāhinahina o nā pōpoki Somalia, he keʻokeʻo keʻokeʻo ko lākou kapa lalo, a ua pani ʻia nā ʻāpana keʻokeʻo keʻokeʻo e keʻokeʻo (ʻoiai e waiho ana nā ʻeleʻele i ka waihoʻoluʻu like). Hāʻawi kēia i ka pale i kahi ʻano hinuhinu, silvery.
ʻO kahi koho ʻae wale no ka outcrossing me kahi pōpoki Abyssinian. Eia naʻe, ʻo ka hopena, ʻike ʻia ka somalis lauoho pōkole, ʻoiai ke kuleana o ka ʻāpana no ka lauoho pōkole. Pehea ka helu ʻana o kēia mau keiki i ka hui. No laila, ma TICA ua hāʻawi ʻia lākou i ka Abyssinian Breed Group, a hiki i ka Somalis lauoho pōkole ke hana ma ke ʻano Abyssinian.
ʻAno
ʻOiai lanakila ka nani o kēia laha i ka puʻuwai o ke kanaka, akā ʻo kona ʻano ke hoʻohuli iā ia i fanatic. Wahi a nā poʻe aloha o nā pōpoki Somalia ʻo lākou ka mea ola kūloko ʻoi loa i hiki ke kūʻai ʻia, a hōʻoia lākou he ʻoi aku ka nui o ka poʻe ma mua o nā pōpoki.
ʻO ka poʻe liʻiliʻi, fluffy, hyperactive. ʻAʻole lākou no ka poʻe aloha i nā pōpoki passive, couch.
Ua like lākou me chanterelles ʻaʻole wale i ke kala a me ka huelo fluffy, ʻike lākou ʻike i nā ala hou aku e hana i kahi kolohe ma mua o nā ʻalopeke he ʻumi. Inā paha ʻaʻole ʻoe e ʻike i kahi hoʻonani nani e pili iā ʻoe a me ka manawa o ka lā.
ʻOi aku ka liʻiliʻi o ka nani inā ʻoe ma 4 a lohe ʻoe i ke kani ʻana o nā kīʻaha kuli e hāʻule ana i ka papahele.
Akamai loa lākou, i hōʻike ʻia i ko lākou hiki ke pāʻani i nā pranks. Ua hoʻopiʻi kekahi mea hoʻohiwahiwa i ka ʻaihue ʻia o kāna wig e ka Somali a hōʻike ʻia me ia i loko o kona mau niho i mua o nā malihini. Inā hoʻoholo ʻoe e kiʻi i kēia pōpoki, pono ʻoe i ke ahonui a me kahi ʻano hoʻomākeʻaka.
ʻO ka mea pōmaikaʻi, ʻaʻole e walaʻau nā pōpoki Somali, koe wale nō i nā hihia koʻikoʻi, e like me ka wā e pono ai lākou e ʻai. Hāʻawi ʻia i kā lākou hana, pono lākou i nā meaʻai māmā pinepine. Eia nō naʻe, ke pono lākou e kamaʻilio, hana lākou ia me ka meow a purring paha.
Kaulana ka Somalis no ko lākou koa a me ko lākou kūpaʻa. Inā hele mai kekahi mea i ko lākou manaʻo, a laila e hāʻawi maikaʻi ʻoe a hāʻawi a hoʻomākaukau paha no kahi kaua mau loa. Akā, paʻakikī e huhū iā lākou ke pīpī lākou a cuddle iā ʻoe. Kūlana nui ka poʻe Somalis a kaumaha i ke ʻano inā ʻaʻole lākou e nānā ʻia. Inā ʻoe ma ka home i ka hapa nui o ka lā, a laila pono ʻoe e lilo iā ia i hoa. Eia nō naʻe, e hoʻomanaʻo he ʻelua mau pōpoki Somalia i loko o ka hale i ka manawa he nui ka hana kolohe.
Ma ke ala, e like me ka ʻōlelo a ka poʻe pā, ʻaʻole kēia mau pōpoki no ka mālama ʻana i waho, hanai piha ʻia lākou. Noho hauʻoli lākou i kahi keʻena, hāʻawi ʻia hiki iā lākou ke holo i nā wahi āpau a lawa kā lākou mea pāʻani a me ka nānā.
Mālama a me ke olakino
He lāhui olakino kūpono kēia, me ka ʻole o nā maʻi genetical kūikawā. ʻOiai ka loko wai liʻiliʻi, ʻano ʻokoʻa ia, a ke hele mau nei lākou i waho me ka pōpoki Abyssinian. ʻO ka hapa nui o nā pōpoki Somali, me ka mālama pono, ola i 15 mau makahiki. A noho paʻa lākou a pāʻani hoʻi i ko lākou ola a pau.
ʻOiai he pōpoki lauoho lauoho lōʻihi lākou, ʻaʻole pono ka hoʻoikaika ʻana i ka mālama ʻana iā lākou. ʻO ko lākou kapa, ʻoiai ka mānoanoa, ʻaʻole prone i ka hoʻokumu ʻia ʻana o nā tangles. No kahi pōpoki maʻamau, home, ua lawa ka palaki maʻamau, akā pono e ʻauʻau ʻia nā holoholona hōʻikeʻike papa a palaki pinepine ʻia.
Inā hoʻomaʻamaʻa ʻoe i kahi keiki mai ka wā ʻōpio, a laila ʻike lākou i nā kaʻina hana wai me ka ʻole o nā pilikia a aloha pū iā lākou. I kekahi Somali, hiki i ka momona ke hūnā ʻia ma ke kumu o ka huelo a ma ke kua hoʻi, e ʻinoʻino ai ke kapa. Hiki ke ʻauʻau pinepine ʻia kēia mau pōpoki.
Ma ka laulā, ʻaʻole paʻakikī ka mālama a me ka mālama ʻana. ʻO nā meaʻai maikaʻi, nā hana hoʻoikaika kino he nui, kahi ola noa ʻole ke ala āpau i ke ola pōpoki lōʻihi a me nā hiʻohiʻona maikaʻi.
